While the Captur Intens is hanging onto the top spot in the model range, it’s about to be de-throned by the incoming R.S. That leaves the Captur to compete with the likes of the Ford Puma, Nissan Juke, Suzuki Ignis, and to a lesser extent, the Suzuki Jimny – if you can get your hands on one, though, I’d argue it’s a very different proposition given its revered off-road attributes. Korean twins Hyundai Venue and Kia Stonic are also major players in the sales race, while both Toyota Yaris Cross and Volkswagen T-Cross have also been racking up solid numbers lately.
The Mazda CX-3 has been the clear favourite over the last couple of years holding as much as 32.5 per cent share of the segment. Nonetheless, the Captur needs all the help it can get because although the Light SUV segment makes up only around 5.0 per cent of the total number of cars sold in Australia each year, it’s still one very hotly contested segment, with at least eight other well-known brands all vying for market share. And bear in mind, that’s on top of a particularly generous standard equipment list. Most buyers won’t mind, though, given the extra features that come with it.Īny Renault Captur Intens built from January 2022 also picks up adaptive cruise control with stop/go, wireless phone charging, and a shark antenna instead of the older screw-in type. At least with the Captur, it’s a relatively pain-free bump across the range of between $850 and $1210.
